Students who have completed the Business Marketing Education Sequence or the Commercial Art Sequence may elect to take this project-based course. Students work both independently and with the classroom teacher and/or a small group to develop and implement projects related to their chosen major. Students apply the skills and knowledge they have acquired throughout their major courses to careers beyond the high school experience. Wherever possible, students work with other majors to enhance their programs.
